Anyone in the beta for this? I got in and didn't even notice until I went to beta site and checked my trion account. Anyways it's a game much like world in conflict and command and conquer (generals). Many of the developers are actually from westwood and the music is from the same composer. If your familiar with nod than some of the unit chooses should seem familiar.

I goofed around for a bit on it... Found out I had an invite due to the amount of RIFT time I had.

From a casual standpoint, it was quick and easy to get into and it was a lot of fun. However, I tried 2v2 and 1v1 and got DESTROYED and don't really understand why. I wish it did a better job of explaining strengths, weaknesses, and team composition. I had two companies, one was anti-infantry, the other anti-tank. I played a guy who was nothing but blur's and pathfinder's and used anti-infantry against him, only to be wiped out in seconds.

That could of been me using nothing but Blurs and pathfinders. I was running that company for 80% of my games. The problem you had with pathfinders is probably that they are anti light vehicle so unless your anti infantry unit is made up of flame tanks or electric tanks they can normally just kite you and win because you cant really focus fire them down as well as they can you.

I'll probably play Patriot and aesir infantry next beta if you want to team up, just so I don't have to deal with napalm strikes wiping out half my company. I don't think the game is balanced for 1v1 since you need to specialize your company and the game uses rock, paper, and scissor mechanics.

They got another beta event on the 4th. If you sign up chances are you will get in and everyone who plays during it gets 500 credits when the game launches. I've been in alpha and have been enjoyed it so far except for the low player count. My goal for close beta 4 is get in the top 20 players.

I have like 4 commanders so I play all factions. Beeroth is the one I'm using the most right as SR although Patriot is my favorite class. If we want to do 2 v 2 matches the best setup would be double phantoms. I was playing icebreaker with this guy wayward earlier and we crushed it with him playing arty and me playing defiants. Basically the ravengers can just sit behind the defiants who soak up all the damage and kill everything and then when the enemy is dead the defiants just use field repair to gain their hp back. The only counter I can think of to stop this is either an infantry rushing the arty or if one of the enemies is a patriot and goes air but then it's normally too late and they are already resource starved and need points.

This game needs players. I already joined a clan in this game and we managed to hold down 6 of the top 10 ELO's on the leader board. Your's truly was number 1 for the majority of it but I played both sides so after neglecting my LF commander to play more premades with friends I ended up finishing in 3rd although but the 1 and 2nd player were boosted with my help.

The larger maps are amazing esp' when you can manage to get two groups into the game.
